Currently, as many as 5.4 million Americans are living with Alzheimer's disease, and millions more are faced with the financial and emotional challenges of caring for a loved one with the disease. If current trends continue, Alzheimer's will bankrupt families, communities and our healthcare system.

 

But there is something we can do to stop this devastating disease. We can walk together to end this disease. That's why we are participating in the Alzheimer's Association Walk to End Alzheimer's.

 

The Alzheimer's Association, the leading voluntary organization in Alzheimer's research, care and support, is dedicated to finding prevention methods, treatments and an eventual cure for the disease. 

 

We plan to raise at least  $5,000 to support the Alzheimer's Association, which provides consultation, information and referral and support programs to our community.

 

I know we can do this with your support. Would you please consider making a donation? Visit our online fundraising headquarters at http://walktoendalz.kintera.org/atlanta/fountainview to learn more and make a donation. You can also make a donation at The Fountainview Center's reception desk. Checks should be made payable to the Alzheimer's Association and are tax deductible.

 

Thank you in advance for your time and generosity.

 

Sincerely,

 

 

Heather Bogle
